LiterateGr I was glad to see a positive update. I developed asthma a few years and just joined a gym. Good and bad asthma days, but it makes me feel healthier to move and hopefully strengthen my cardiovascular.

I plan to split my time between treadmill and bike. I like the treadmill as I call it a 2fer and use the incline to tighten my backside, then use the bike to strengthen my quads. My knees are getting old so I'm glad it's good for that use too.

I tried the upright bike, oh my god the seat was pure torture, I made it about 5 min.

Best wishes LBangle - I admire your grit!
